Clear, not clear, clear, slip
Local knuckleheadeds moving snow making the bike commute possible.
There was a LOT of frozen water, I kept traction, and didn't slip like the evidence of someone's studded tires on the frozen water.

It didn't clear down to the pavement everywhere, but that one on the right with the fence? Uphill, easiest gear, turbo mode and studded nokian tires, and the resistance stopped me right there.
No action video because it took all my effort and focus to plow.

That's about as far as I got today. Very wet and heavy snow out there.
90 min to drag the plow 3.75 miles one way and back. Battery would have died after 5.5 miles but I eeked out the last handful in ECO mode in the easiest gear. Ouch
But bike path is clearish from Harold to the Veterans Parkway

I brought the tripod out but while camera was steady enough to focus manually (the AF on this lens is rough) the branches started moving too much after this shot.

Snow flakes
I needed more patience, an umbrella and luck to get more of these. Or maybe just to have it actually snowing instead of 1 snowflake to 5 raindrops falling out of the sky.

Checked the rear brake pads visually at one point... Oooh
That explains it...
Top fuel needs pads and tires (prob hot wax the chain too)
and
Gotta find an alloy Shimano crank pre-load bolt for the Stache.

Took the old one (OXO that wasn't working) totally apart today.
There's a really annoying fiddly bit, but while the gears are odd, and the lower set is a bit dirty, nothing seems to be amiss.
The Baratza is def simpler and easier to take apart, and more importantly put back together.

It multiplied!
30 minutes this morning and now there are two more bike drag plows ready to go into the wild for bandit bike path clearing.
OFC I had to use the Charmera OBS
